People respect people who admit their mistake and hustle to do better next time.

Do you know how to apologize? That is a funny question, isn’t it? Asking this might even sound a bit demeaning. 

What I really mean is, have you learned the etiquette of apologizing to others when you make a mistake? Did your mother and teachers embed this simple concept in your younger years? More importantly, do you mean it when you say it? It is rather an art form, I think, and to master this (which you completely can) you need a few skills in your back pocket.
